Environmental Illness

Environmental Illness

Many terms are used to define an “illness” that apparently is induced by exposure to environmental chemicals. These include environmental illness (EI), environmental allergy, total allergy syndrome, multiple chemical sensitivity, and 20th century disease

EI is supposed to be a results of chemical damage to the immune system

Numerous studies have found that there is no physical evidence of any changes in immune function in those who believe that they are suffering from EI

There is good evidence that EI cases have a history of psychological and psychiatric dysfunction
